There really isn't any biological reason not to shoot him. Piebalds and albinos have a recessive gene. But then, if you like having him around, by all means hold off on shooting but don't expect others to if they get a crack at him. 40 acres isn't a big patch of land for him to stay on all the time. Don't be surprised if you see a pic of him in the paper with a smiling hunter next to him.
yeah exactly! Ive seen all different kinds of spotted piebalds in MD but out west here I haven't seen any...
